LONG JOHN SILVER'S - Life in America

[@elderlypoodle9181]

My little brother worked at Long John Silvers! I remember he had no money to buy Christmas gifts for me. I got the best present from him that year. It was four glass small plates with Holly. They gave them away for promotions👍. Still to this day I have them ☺️

The Long Johns Silver in my town closed about 5 years ago, sad to see the deteriorating building just sitting there. I loved getting dinner from here as a kid in the 70’s, always got a chicken plank dinner. Hope they can survive.

Yes ours closed maybe 7 years ago so did the KFCnext door. Pissed me off we will never get another franchise restaurant in our county wehavemsybr 50 thousand I county. Mall is shit. Only Walmart and sfew restaurants by mall. Mcd. Taco bell. Arby's. Tore down BK years ago. Have an Arby's, Subway. Pizza hit which has gotten bad. Wendy's soggy burgers, a Bob Evans, an Eatn park a Pittsburgh based restaurant not all that. King restaurant. A couple nasty Chinese tests. A Italian rest but got bad when lazy son took over from father. That's about it guys.itsucks.oh yah a BK is bad. Item the YUM Brands. Called my bank to ask what a yum brand was on my statement. I figured it out. It was ljs or KFC. Mustabeen before Google got big cause customer service rep said we always wandered what YUM Brands was. Lol. We need sit-down steak house, chic fil a, a Popeyes, a LJS, KFC, maybe add a good sandwich shop like the one Actor Brad Garrett advertised, I would welcome a Dominoes. Had one25 years ago. Shit down but Dominoes has gotten real cardboard u tasting Lol. Only wal mart or another franchise grocery store. And Aldi's. No place to shop anymore. Our Walmart is ghettoashell. Always having police there forsholifters or drunk pple in store. Or no food on shelves. Never have the chibatta bread. One dayno frozen spinach. Then no roasts, no chicken I'll scarce. They say we going back food chain drama again. Ugh.

Augustine - Thanks so much for sharing your family memory .. a bell to ring .. such pleasant, unforgettable times! Thanks

[@UmmYeahOk]

As a child, I always made fun of the discount. The joke was that their customers would never live long enough to claim the benefit. I absolutely LOVED their fish, but knew that it wasn’t very healthy, and would always have a stack of napkins to soak up all the grease. I would eat at LJS almost weekly with my dad in the years leading up to that 55 age group. He managed to survive to be 57, debunking my theory. ...so I was 2 years off.

[@kerridillon3120]

"...you never know when Long John Silvers will be forced to walk the plank!!" LOL! Thanks for making my day Sailor! 😀

[@user-vm5ud4xw6n]

I liked the fish planks, slaw and pups. Never had them until we moved to the south. My husband was stationed at Ft. Campbell, KY and we were finally somewhere that had LJS. When my son got older my husband’s aunt and uncle would take him there for lunch and all he wanted was the little fried batter sprinkle things. They had to get extra for him but when you’re spoiling your great nephew nothing is too big or small.

[@TacoTraveller]

I recently went back to my hometown, I was actually expecting the LJS to be closed like so many. I was pleasantly surprised to see it not only still in business, but the building had been nicely remodeled on the outside. Seeing the photos of the restaurant in the 70's reminded me of eating in that one when I was a kid. My brother and I would always ask for "extra crumbs". Which looking back on it, probably wasn't the healthiest thing, since it was nothing but the extra fried bits of batter!

[@donathon7303]

Extra crumbs me too

[@susieuramoto7491]

I would go here with my Dad. Hush Puppies and fried clams were my favorite. Such wonderful memories. 🥰

[@d.vaughn8990]

My best friend, got to eat at all the fast food restaurants in town. His parents were young and cool, and he was spoiled. Now this is during the 70's - eating out was not too common for most families. He always brought souvenirs from his outings to school. Long John Silver's had these neat plastic, fork-like, utensils, that possessed pirates names and faces on them. He had a growing collection and I was jealous! I remember he gave me a few. Up until my mother passed in 2018, they were still in her utensils drawer! Anyone else remember those forks?

[@waxedearth5425]

My dad would take me to Long John Silver’s on the weekend. I would order the #1 Shrimp Platter (8 shrimp, 2 fish, fries, hush puppies, slaw). I would ask for the extra crispy things too. Once I got the food, I would dose everything in pepper and that “Louisiana Chef” hot sauce. To this day, I swear that was some of the best food I had in my life.

I remember my first ever trip to the big city, and one of the reasons I remember it is because we went to Long John Silvers. Growing up as I did in a town so small that we didn't have any franchise businesses except Winn Dixie and Tastee Freeze, I was thrilled to go to LJS because of the pirate books I had read, but also because I thought it sounded like something from England and I had read books like The Secret Garden and several Charles Dickins books as well. The smell of fried fish assailed my senses when I entered the store. I was hooked. The love affair did not last long since in the same store there was an Arthur Treacher's Fish and Chips, and and they had one thing LJS did not. MALT vinegar. That was so English I just fell in love.

They hired awesome people who actually cared about customers experiences. Even as teens, we worked hard there. Also, it was awesome as a kid to work the window in those stores ( not drive through which we didn’t have but the window behind the counter)….and stare at my future wife’s butt while day dreaming! Made $4.15 an hour but ate all the food there for free….had an awesome manager. In all seriousness, I worked there about a year and learned a lot about life and jobs and adulthood. Decades later I am a well respected and known executive at a big US biotech. I owe my beginnings to the lessons learned and first life experiences provided by this company. How weird right?

Then they got bought out by smaller multi-chains like Captain D’s, or Long John Silver and the fish size went away along with the fierce competition they would have been if they were allowed to continue.

I recall going to the Long John’s also in Hazard as a child and it was one of the original Cape Cod style buildings, but I remember the food being really good and of great quality.
